Fairyland

Payton was invited to, you guessed it, another Birthday party! It was at Children's Fairyland in Oakland. It is such a neat place, I remember going as a child! The Good Witch ;)

The Birthday Girl, Lea

Checking out a Puppet showI decided to save some money and give something a little more meaningful than just another toy so I made Lea's gift. Plus Payton loved "helping" make some choices regarding fabric and colors. I had it all on hand even the T so it cost me nothing extra! (all of my over buying is paying off, always have something on hand ;) Only problem I encountered was, my procrastination got the best of me again, so Saturday night was when I planned to make everything, the power was out for almost 5 hours that evening/night, which meant no sewing machine or hot glue gun, yikes! Luckily the power was back on by 9 so I wasnt up too late ;-)

I tried my hand at a Rosette clip, it was actually pretty easy!

**On a side note: Did you know they make battery powered Glue Guns? I didn't, until now! I know what I will be asking for this Christmas!***

About Me

I am a daughter, sister, wife, teacher and most importantly a mother. I have two beautiful daughters who I love more than words can say, who teach me so much on a daily basis. I married my high school sweetheart in Aug of 2003. He is the most amazing husband and father who works so hard for me and our family. Everything we have we have built together and I love that! I am a part time pre-school teacher and LOVE my job and being able to contribute to our household, I also love being home with my girls and feel so lucky to have the best of both worlds! I enjoy being "crafty" in my spare time (spare time? what is that?) and of course shopping. Since I have had the girls it is mostly shopping for them not me... We are lucky to live in Beautiful California near all of our loving family!We are truly blessed!
